Only Netflix does subtitles right. *[speaks Korean]*

[@AsexTwin]

obviously they’re not gonna transcribe the content in another language if it’s not already translated on screen

[@Liggliluff]

​@@AsexTwinsome films don't embed the translation into the video despite people asking this to be done. This is because it needs to work with multiple subs as well as subs. If English subtitles are embedded, that not useful if someone watches the Spanish dub because they don't know English, or if they're using Spanish subtitles you get double up on subtitles. The big flaw is that these films don't come with a second set of subtitles though. It's either having everyone subtitled, or no one subtitled.
